Seriously. If you are human, stop reading. This post is not for you. I’m not kidding. Stop!
This post is for the search engines. Sorry to throw this up in your reader, but I have a dilemma: My whole life, more people misspelled my name than got it right. Whatever. I am used to people defaulting to Justin Marks. It never really bothered me. But, I never did understand why they spelled it as “Marks”, especially since I have never even heard of a Marks. Right? All the famous people spell it my way. Karl, Richard, the brothers. No, no relation. Sorry.
Anyway, people keep making the mistake … and these days they search for Marks Foods online. The only problem is that Google et al don’t know us as Marks Foods or Mark’s Foods … so our page never comes up. So. GOOGLE! BING! Listen up! If someone searches for Marks Foods, please send them to the right place. After all, don’t you already know that we have a redirect on marksfoods.com?
My dad has the opposite problem. His name is Marks and Marx is but one of the many ways that people mangle it.
So, I guess it is a 50/50 split … people do get it “right” sometimes … I never thought that a Marks would be having the opposite problem. Fair enough.
